Teichert Family Update ... East Africa Ministry Trip

The family of Karl and Jenny Teichert are serving the Lord as missionaries with OC Africa, in South Africa. They moved to Johannesburg in November, 1997 with their four children; Ann, Scott, Stephen and John. Karl serves as the Southern Africa Director of the Southern Africa Regional Team. Their vision is to see a healthy, Bible-based church established in every unreached village and community in South Africa, Swaziland, Zimbabwe, Zambia and beyond. Their strategy is to partner with key African church leaders to research, train, and mobilize the body of Christ to complete the Great Commission. They are striving to equip local leaders in Southern Africa to reach their nations for Christ and send missionaries into other countries as well.

East Africa Ministry Trip

Dear Prayer Partner,

Trust you are well and growing in your intimacy with our Heavenly Father. We would appreciate your prayers for us in the following ways:

CLIDE project; Soroti, Uganda: June 6-10

Karl has been invited to visit the Community Livestock-Integrated Development Consultancy (CLIDE) in Uganda. The CLIDE ministry primarily serves the Karamojong and Iteso people groups of the North-East region. Their emphasis is on Christ-centered community development, addressing both the physical and spiritual needs through agriculture, livestock, child development, HIV/AIDs education, peace and reconciliation, leader formation and church planting. OC Africa has entered into a strategic partnership with CLIDE to strengthen the local leadership team, increase the financial sustainability and provide leadership development and disciple-making multiplication training

Please pray for God’s wisdom as Karl comes to listen, understand and discern how to best serve the CLIDE project leaders in the future.

Global DMM Catalyst Camp; Nairobi, Kenya; June 11-16

Karl and Dinah Ratsimbajaona (OC Africa Associate from Madagascar) are excited to join 80 people from 22 countries to learn about best practices of disciple-making movements. Karl and Dinah have been asked to facilitate group coaching opportunities during the conference with participants to assist them to better multiply movements of the gospel among the least-reached peoples. They will also partner with two other DMM coaches from Indonesia.

Please pray that God would use Karl, Dinah and others to effectively coach church planters to accelerate healthy disciple-making movements in Africa and the world.

Thank you for faithfully interceding for our family and ministry. May the Lord continue to enrich your walk with Him.

For His glory,

Karl and Jenny
